that's what I thought about, a python extension (a shared object,
that is loaded when someone does an import from python).

This way it would be on the same layer as the cmdline client,
not build on top of it.

with the third solution you have to modify the cmdlient and keep
two outputs for each command uptodate (for humans and for programs).
